ABOUT ME

I'm Alithia (Ally) Monroe, a Physician Assistant in a concierge Family Medicine practice in Back Bay Boston since 2009. I'm from a Mental Health Practitioner family. My Grandfather was a Child Psychiatrist and my Mother was an Angola Minister and this instilled a knowing and respect for diverse holistic, religious, and medical healing methods. Administering botox within a Family Medicine practice, I am able to observe patient's continuation of care where I see people look better of course, but also witness them get their "game back". Following my botox treatments they very often feel less sad and more motivated which lead me to search for what turned out to be fairly robust research showing that when the neuromodulator (brand botox) is injected into "the frown muscle" of people with Major Depressive Disorder, they report less sadness with reduced depression scores from baseline. Double blind, randomized studies show the positive effect usually occur 2-3 weeks after treatment. I am mission driven to help people along their Healing path by improving facial expressions with botox, thereby quieting the frown muscle facilitating more positive feedback and a better mood.
